| What we offer |
| CitizenShipper is an reverse auction style marketplace where thousands of drivers get the opportunity to bid on your move. Because the drivers are all competing against each other for your job, the prices are driven down, sometimes by as much as 75%. When you list with us, you are under no obligation to select a transporter so can simply use our service to obtain quotes from professional shipping companies. You no longer have to phone up companies to receive inflated quotes, simply list with us and let the drivers do the work! We have thousands of professional drivers, and movers all waiting to bid on your job! The professional vehicle transporters work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week so no matter when or where you have a job, we can help with all your vehicle transportation needs. |
|
| Why is this Cheaper? |
What's so original about our service is that we match drivers who are already planning on driving somewhere anyway! Because of this, the service providers are willing to make your deliveries for a fraction of the cost when compared with other services. As an example, Paul M. from IL recently requested that a dirk bike be shipped from Lake Havasu City to New York, a trip of 2,582 miles. Paul received bids as low as $800. Most companies would charge several thousand dollars for an identical job.

| Is this safe? |
You bet! We are willing to guarantee that this is safer than all the competition. Here's how we make sure your delivery is in safe hands.
- We perform background checks, criminal record checks and address and name checks on all our verified drivers. Once you're posted a shipment and have bids you can even see the phone number, email, and address of drivers and give them a call and chat with them about the shipment.
- Our couriers are the cream of the crop. Many of the drivers have worked for UPS, FedEx, professional courier services, and trucking companies and thus were naturally attracted to the site.
- 100% protection from loss. We offer competitively priced insurance so that if ever anything did get damaged or lost you would receive compensation! We have partnered with Oswald Companies and International Excess who are widely accepted as the industry leaders in shipping insurance. Post your shipment for FREE and select to cover your shipment with insurance (insurance is purchased only after you have awarded a shipment which is optional).
- Our users can leave feedback on each other! That way you can see if a courier is punctual, smart, friendly and reliable. With our feedback system we quickly weed out any undesirable users from our site.
- Our members upload pictures of themselves and their vehicles! That way you know who to expect, and the type of transportation they own. Click Here To Sign Up Now!
We are the only web site in existence to offer such stringent background checks on our verified drivers and to provide such extensive protection for our members.

|
| Can You Guarantee My Shipment? |
| Absolutely. If your stuff is lost, damaged, or stolen in the shipping process then your loss is covered by insurance. We take away all the risk when you find vehicle transporters with us!* |
|
| Ok, so how does this work? |
It's very easy and user friendly, you simply list your vehicle shipment details below, including important information like where it's going to, where it needs to be picked up from, what time you need it shipped by and how much you are willing to pay. Almost immediately drivers will bid on your job and you will be notified of a transporters interest both through email, and with a notification on our site whenever you log in. If you like the look of a driver then simply accept him for the job! After that the driver will arrive at the specified time, but we encourage both you and the drivers to give each other a quick call just to clarify all the details.
When a driver bids, you can click on his or her name and see a profile on that driver. This includes important information including their contact details, how much moving experience they have and pictures of their truck. |
|
| Is My Privacy Respected? |
| Absolutely. Until you select a driver, only the zip codes of your pick-up and delivery locations are displayed. Only when you have made a final selection on a courier will they be able see more details on your shipment. |
|
| What can I send on your site? |
With so many professional movers registered on our site, we can cater for all your requirements. You might just need a small car, or truck transported or perhaps a 4x4. Whether it's a high end BMW, or a run of the mill 4-door, we'll help you find the right service provider for your needs.

|
| How do the background checks work? |
| Background checks are performed on Level 3 verified members. When a driver makes a bid on your contract you will see the words 'Verified' in green next to their name. To bring you increased security we have partnered with Single Source Services, a background screening firm founded in 1995 by a retired Scotland Yard Inspector. The background check that we perform is a nationwide "Discovery" search and adds considerable levels of security to our site. |
|
| List your Vehicle Transportation Requirements with us for FREE |
| Because most of our business is based on site traffic, we don't need to take a cut of the job from either you or the driver. Using our site is 100% FREE. We don't ask a single cent of you...ever. If you get bids that you don't like, simply decline them. There's no risk and no obligation for you to select a transporter. |

I found "My CitizenShipper" on line at a time when I was getting pretty desperate. I needed to have a refrigerator taken from my garage
to my son-in-law and daughter's home about 20 miles away. And, I had about one day to get the job done! Unbelievably, the contractor who
answered the ad was accepting my price (lower than what others quoted) and gave me a one hour window of when he could pick up the
merchandise. Not only was he on time from start to finish but, he was obviously experienced and careful with the refrigerator.
One company told me they could deliver it but, would not be able to bring it inside the house! But the "My CitizenShipper"
contractor brought it in to the exact location it was needed in and hooked it up for us. He and his helper were awesome!
I will definitely use this service again if I need a pickup and/or delivery! I am glad to know this service exists! :-)

Candi is very reliable and flexible. She arrived for pickup on time and took care of my kitty on the long trip from Virginia to Florida.
She gave him extra care and tried to sooth him, even trying to feed him when she stopped. She is very nice and i would use her again.

Rob from Classic Cargo Was very professional, prompt, and had all the tools necessary to do the job. I thought it would require two
people to move the desk from my office, but he had a truck with a lift gate and a pallet jack, and was able to do it himself.
I also liked that Rob was able to provide all of the proof of insurance and had permit numbers on hand and on the side of his truck,
and this is why I chose him. People are quick to file lawsuits these days and I don't need that. Thanks again Rob & and I will
definitely be using you again in the future.
